Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre

Volunteering at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre (Manjushri KMC) offers an opportunity to experience first-hand the Buddhist way of life within a vibrant, international community.

There are many ways in which you can help. For example, serving in the cafe, helping to prepare guest rooms, cooking, gardening or joining a renovation project for the building.

We are located just south of the English Lake District, situated in 70 acres of woodland and gardens, on the shores of Morecambe Bay. Take this opportunity to be part of a diverse international community of Buddhist practitioners and volunteers, make lasting connections, and enjoy a meaningful break. Typically you will volunteer Monday to Friday but depending on the activity, it may also include weekends. Whilst these activities are not always strenuous you will need to be reasonably fit and active to come on a volunteering visit. You will have two days free each week when you can explore the Lakes, or just relax in the friendly atmosphere of the Centre. As a volunteering visitor you are welcome to take part in many of the spiritual activities at Manjushri Centre such as evening classes and weekend courses.

Manjushri is truly a precious place, it goes far beyond a simple volunteering experience.
If you are looking for something meaningful and unique, this is the right place to go. This is my second time here, and it’s a place I know I will always return to. It’s ideal for those who want to be genuinely involved with the center, participate in meditations, and attend teachings and classes. Living and working alongside the monks is a rare experience that teaches valuable qualities such as kindness, self-awareness, balance, clarity and empathy, lessons I will carry with me for life.

The environment at welcoming, relaxed, and reflective. I had a great time learning more about Buddhist culture and finding so real peace in a beautiful location with amazing people. The work is not too difficult with decent breaks in a simple 9-5. I will say that if you have bad food allergies, ensure you discuss this with the team as this may complicate your stay. But I'd highly recommend and a grateful for the peace I found there.

It was a great experience, and being surrounded by volunteers from all over the world made it even better. The place is beautiful, but the castle is a 40-minute walk from the nearest town, and the shift ends at 5 pm, so if you're traveling in winter when it's already dark, there might not be much to do. But everyone is very friendly, the food is good and there are always plenty of snacks

It was simply amazing. I worked in the art studio, and it couldn’t have been better. I learned things I never imagined I would learn and grew and developed so much, both personally and professionally
I’m deeply grateful to everyone, especially Erica, Lupe, and Rodrigo, who supported me and helped me a lot in the studio.
I also met wonderful people and had the opportunity to learn more about Kadampa Buddhism by attending classes and meditations, which made this experience even more special and truly transformative
